The study identified 123 distinct antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the genus Serratia, including intrinsic and acquired resistance genes, as well as efflux pump-related genes. Key findings include the detection of various beta-lactamases, aminoglycoside resistance genes, quinolone resistance genes, and efflux pumps. Notably, the study highlights the presence of plasmid-borne ARGs in nosocomial strains and the role of efflux pumps in multidrug resistance.
